#53 Think Pink

“Think Pink!” October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. To help promote this worthy cause, make a card for a friend or a loved one for Breast Cancer Awareness month. It can be a reminder card for self-exams and mammograms, a card congratulating a breast cancer survivor, or a card of encouragement for someone currently going through the trauma of breast cancer. Use any cartridges you'd like and use Pink as your primary color. After you've sent me your card photo and posted it to your blog, make sure you give your card to a friend or loved one!

For my card, I decided to make my first ever square joy fold card. I used the Sweetheart cricut cartridge for my image. For the card base, I used a 4.25 x 6.25 and scored at 4.25. I layered the card base with a 4 x 4 sheet of pattern paper from the Be Mine Collection from Echo Park. I added another card base layer cut out at 3 x 6 and scored at 3", which was layered with a 2.75" and 2.50" square pieces of pattern paper. I used dimensionals to pop up the image. Using my punches, I punched out the scalloped oval and the oval layer. I stamped the sentiment using Breast Wishes by Pink By Design. I popped it up using double dimensionals.
